The Nation Thailand reported on July 24 that a 27-year-old Nigerian male, Osmond Chihazirim Nzerem, was diagnosed with monkeypox in Thailand last week, the first case in Thailand. Subsequently, the man fled Thailand and disappeared. On July 23, Cambodia's capital, Phnom Penh, confirmed that the patient had been identified and had been isolated for treatment.
Osmond Chihazirim Nzerem
Nzerem came to Thailand on an education visa last October, entered Phuket, southern Thailand, and on July 16 went to a local hospital to check for small blisters on his skin, which confirmed he was infected with monkeypox. (This person's visa expired as early as January 18 this year, foreigners to go to the local hospital in Thailand to see a doctor is not required to look at the passport to see the visa, is it..... ）
Phuket should be a pure land.
While in Phuket, he went to two entertainment venues where 142 people he had been in close contact with were being tested for monkeypox virus. After learning of his illness, he left his residence in Phuket and turned off his mobile phone, thus blocking text messages and contacts from the police and the hospital. His whereabouts are unknown.
Nzerem ran from Phuket to Sa Kaeo Province
Later, the investigation found that on July 22, Nzerem swam all the way under the bridge along the Thai-Cambodian Cross-Border Bridge in thailand's Aranyaprathet District (in Thailand's Sa Kaeo province), crossed the border with Cambodia, and then took a taxi to Sihanoukville in southwestern Cambodia.

Cambodian police said on July 24 that Nzerem was being treated at the Khmer-Soviet Friendship Hospital in Phnom Penh and said he would face a trial under Cambodian law so he would not be returned to Thailand. Officials from Thailand's medical department also said that according to international practice in disease control, Nzerem really should not return to Thailand.
Public health officials in Thailand's Sa Kaeo province (on the Thai-Cambodian border) said there was now no risk of monkeypox infection in the province because Nzeerem was just passing through the province and didn't stop. However, the Thai government has called on medical facilities across the country to be prepared for a possible full-blown outbreak of monkeypox in Thailand.
There is no shortage of Lords in the world who harm others.
